Astronomy Tour in Colorado booking from $45.00

Astronomy Tour

Overview

A tour for all ages just outside of Boulder (accessible by Taxi, Lyft & Uber). Tours start at sunset and last for 2 hours. The show will explore the night sky with several large telescopes and a laser pointer. We will see and learn about planets, constellations, navigation, satellites, nebula, clusters, galaxies, maybe some shooting stars, and our universe. Through telescopes we will get up close looks at these objects and take in their beauty with our own eyes. The tour takes place at a easy to find trailhead (no hiking required) where phenomenal sunsets and wildlife are often seen. Guests are provided with a red flashlight, comfy camp seating, bug spray, snacks, hot water, tea, instant coffee, hot chocolate, and cookies. Guests are encouraged to bring questions, wonderment, and warm clothing (it can get cool after sunset)

It was an absolutely amazing and beautiful experience! Massie made it so informative, I cannot believe some of the stuff I saw in the sky with no light pollution! I learned so much from this tour about our beautiful galaxy and sky! Highly recommend if you love space and cold weather! :)

Koda was very knowledgeable. They had 3 telescopes with different abilities setup that were changed and adjusted during the tour. We saw a few interesting nebulas, star clusters, a galaxy, Venus and my personal favorite --Saturn! The downsides to this tour were few but notable. The location-- Boulder was very visible from the location. I feel like this took a way from the viewing experience. There was also a lot of foot traffic and other vehicles coming and going, often creating an environment difficult to view the sky. Finally, there were no snacks or hot drinks. This was falsy advertised for sure as there was zero mention of it and did not seem to ever be offered.

If you are in Winter Park this astronomy tour should be on your itinerary. Our guide, Luke, was kind and very knowledgeable about space and the constellations. We used telescopes to view planets, nebulas, and galaxies. This was a very memorable experience and we were offered hot chocolate even Gordon Ramsey would approve.
